I bought a pair of Oakley progressive glasses at a downtown combined optometrist/optician shop for around $750 and had a hell of a time getting used to them. I went back and was told the lenses were correct for my prescription and I should just give it time. They still suck. In contrast, I had the same prescription filled with the same quality lenses at Canadian Optical Warehouse at less than half the cost and they are perfect. Save your money and buy glasses here. I'm a fan!

Vogue Optical is a small Atlantic Canada optical chain with locations in most cities and bigger…read moretowns. It has two major selling points: a) it offers a 2-for-1 deal on most eyewear b) it has a wicked long guarantee against damage and destruction. In fact, Vogue will replace your glasses if they are damaged in any way for up to two years from the date of purchase. Dog chewed the frames? Covered. Kid got elbowed during a basketball game and the glasses went flying? Covered. Alien abduction and they forgot to return your glasses? Uh, not sure if that one's covered actually. Vogue's showroom holds a decent stock of frames, starting from $89 (mostly children's frames in that pricepoint) and headed upwards from there. They stock several designer names and can easily advise you as to whether the frame you are considering will work with your prescription. Vogue has saved us headaches on many occasions by advising us on unique characteristics to my son's prescription. Making them even more popular, Vogue now offers a financing option (on approved credit). For persons without insurance, this helps to make the ding in the wallet a little less painful. Vogue also co-houses an optometrist who does eye exams. Call ahead, as each optometrist's office is only staffed on certain days of the week. I'd recommend Vogue to anyone looking to upgrade their fashionable eyewear. I get great compliments on my glasses - even from strangers in the grocery store parking lot!

I've frequented Vogue Optical a few times, but never this particular location. While it is a hike…read moreit was the only one that could get me in within the time frame I required. The lady at reception in the doctor's office was quite pleasant. And I can say the same for the doctor herself. Very nice, thorough and answered all my questions. At the end of my exam I asked for my prescription as I wanted to get new frames. I was shown (by the receptionist lady) where all the frames were and was told someone from the show room would be with me in a few minutes. I spent some time roaming the displays trying to figure out what it was I liked. After almost a half hour of wandering and having only pulled off 2 frames I thought I might like no one had come to help and I was getting frustrated. Yes, I had tried to find someone but saw no one. A few times a staffer would walk through, I'd ask for some help and I'd be told someone would be right with me. And still no one came. Eventually I was asked by Marlene if I needed any help. Finally. She was very helpful with helping me determine which frames I liked and which ones looked best on me. They carry a decent selection of frames, and some designer labels, for men, women and children. They're able to tint most lenses, and have a selection of sunglasses as well. As far as prices go they're somewhere between moderate and pricey. I wouldn't call their pricing excessive, but I wouldn't call it easy on the pocket book either. And since they have the 2 for 1 deal, it isn't so bad. The main reason I continue to use Vogue for my glasses is: -2 year warranty on the lenses -buy one, get one So, if you want two pairs of glasses to suit whatever mood or outfit you in for the day, then Vogue is a great option. Or if you just want new frames and a pair of sunglasses, they can do that too. I placed my order and was told it usually takes about a week to get the glasses back. Which isn't bad. I've experienced longer wait times at other (non-vogue) locations. While the visit overall wasn't terrible I wasn't pleased with having to wait so long to have someone help me with frames, so for that reason they get 3 stars. I haven't gone to pick my glasses up yet. Who knows on that visit they may redeem themselves and earn another star. Stay tuned!

This place is an absolute fortune and an absolute factory conveyer belt system. Everything is made as complicated as humanly possible for the client so that the doctors can spend as little time with them as possible. Instead, you have to spend tons of time with interns who are so anxious and scared, their hands shake when they put them near your eyes - and who can barely convey accurate info to the doctor that the client is not allowed to go near. My consent did not matter for any part of the process and worst of all, they didn't come close to even improving my eye problem, let alone fixing it - before I gave up on them. So I now have to go pay someone else to start all over.

Their original location was on Portland Street on the corner where the Taxi company is now and then they were in MicMac Mall for a number of years and now in their new home on Baker Drive. The one thing that hasn't changed is the customer service is fantastic. Helpful, professional, and informed. This is a family run business with Ray and Kathy Dickens still running the show. Their son Greg and the rest of the capable staff continue the service level that I've come to know for the over 35 years I've been getting glasses from them.
